Wanted to start a topic as motivation so I don't get side tracked so here is what I've done so far . I have already taken all the useable parts from my old gameboy (screen was broken so I didn't use it ) and I started to make some mods to the case

I'm curious as to how you chamfered the extra button holes?

Hey yeah I used a countersink bit just manually because it was really sharp and didn't want to over do it

Nice, I'll think i'll order one of these (would be handy for other projects as well). Good tip on doing it manually as well, I could see myself shredding that hole accidentally, haha.

Planning to use these to keep things organized and to test with I'll remove the male and female connections and wire directly after

I like the idea. How much did that cable cost?

I just ordered a meter spool of it (sans connectors), 40 strands for a few bucks on eBay.
